The road to that majority leads
through Quebec. In our ballot question
[...] the national percentages of party support
were: Conservatives 38, Liberals 28,
NDP 19, Bloc Québécois 9, Green Party
6.
The Tories are still holding up well in Quebec:
In a regional breakout in Quebec,
the Bloc was at 37, the Conservatives
at 35, the Liberals at 19 and the NDP at
13. Liberal support in Quebec is largely
clustered in their anglophone-allophone
stronghold on the island of Montreal.
Outside the Montreal region, a battleground of 50 seats, the
Liberals are, for the moment at least,
out of what has become a two-party contest...
Much more on the importance of various issues to Canadians. Not surprisingly, health-care tops the list. More surprisingly, the Accountability Act plays well in Quebec, but nobody in the ROC thinks it will make much difference one way or another.

Hey - I'm in the ROC and I think the FAA will be great . . anything to keep lying,thieving pricks like the LPC out of office and in jail.
and while I'm here . . please pick Joe Volpe as the next leader . . he's be a dream candidate . . . lots of jokes about pizzas and cheques written in crayons. . . .
I wonder if anonymous 10:35 will say the same thing when some lying, thieving prick is exposed in the CPC?
Will he then change his tune or will he try to defend them?
The FAA is merely a public relations tool it is not a valuable piece of legislation. If the FAA would have existed in 1993 it would not have prevented the sponsorship scandal. It is useless.
I liked Stephen Harper's idea of an FAA and I was hoping it would be something substantial but I was sorely disappointed when I saw what he finally put together.
Too bad. He really had a chance to actually change the culture in Ottawa. Oh well, yet another missed opportunity.
Anon 10:35-look to the west for (provincial) Conservative pillaging, plundering and all the croneyism you can handle...and plenty more when Jim Dinning (shareholder/cool dude in pharm/med company X and proponent of private medicare) takes over the reigns.
